    Have you had a big boy in your Bird

    I came across a couple of guys in a big Ranger and one of them had to be 325+. Made me wonder if our lids, the center step, rear seat, and stuff would work if he was in a bird.

    any experience??

    I weigh about 285. I've had other guys my size or larger in the boat with me (2016 921 PHX with 250 G2). My lids, centre step, etc are fine. Hole shot still sub 2 seconds.

    I've got a buddy who is 350+ and we fish together all the time and never had a problem.
